Uipath → manage package and look there or download it from the marketplace as file and in manage packages add a new directory to look for packs and you can install it like this.

This method was more useful for me when I designed it :slight_smile:

Hi rayan,

we can do it by writing a LINQ query
that is

take another data table and clone it from original

dt2 =dt1.clone

(from d in dt1.asenumerable
let x= if( d(0).tostring.tolower.contains(“needed”) AndAlso d(1).tostring.tolower.contains(“true”), “TRUE”,Nothing)
let y= new object(){ d(0),d(1),x,d(3)}
select dt2.rows.add(y)).CopyToDataTable

this will work definitely

cheers…!!!
